Botanical Blooms
February 25, 2016
This seems to be my week to play in challenges. I saw that the What Will You Stamp challenge #52 was to use the Botanical Blooms stamp set. You know how I feel about that set and framelits, so I went to work. I wanted to do something totally different from what I had done before so I decided to use just one color.
Are you asking where did I use the stamps? I embossed all the details on the leaves in white embossing powder, this added texture and interest. It is hard to see but other than Whisper White card stock the only other paper i used was the Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer paper for the centers of the flowers.
I wanted a little more texture so I used the Elegant Dots embossing folder on the panel. What do you think?
Product List
Just for fun and because I was curious, I also tried it on a black card base.
Not sure which I like better. How about you?
Gorgeous! Absolutely GORGEOUS! Can't decide which one is the favorite. They both jump out and grab your attention. You did a fabulous job. Thanks for sharing...

Wow! this card is absolutely stunning ---- I love the both of them - and it would definitely stand out as a favorite whoever the lucky recipient was to receive it.
Great job.
Thank you for your time and talent.

Oh, wow!! Your card design is absolutely amazing!! It's so elegant and I love all the layers of the flowers-that had to take a little time! I love both versions of your card (both the black and white card bases). Thanks for joining us this week at What Will You Stamp!

Thank you Susan! It was a fun one to make. I get to play with flowers and not have to worry about them wilting or bruising.
